The best part – Google Home can connect to SmartThings, too. I guess I should point out that the Squeezebox device handlers were created to support that product. The Google Home/Chromecast integration was just a bonus byproduct of it for Squeezebox users and not the intended objective.
Look at ZigBee devices as an example, if you want to control them, you need a hub. If you haven’t, I recommend following the community installer instructions in Step 2 of my SmartThings garage door opener guide. It will take a few minutes for the program to finish installing.
How to Configure WLED in Home Assistant
Select the “Add” button under the “Devices” section. It looks like the current “state of the art” approach is to run a “relay” server as below. Unfortunately I don’t, I switched over to Home Assistant 2 years ago.
If garage door is left open at 10pm, broadcast to bedroom Google Mini “You forgot to close the door! Node red has a palette for Google Home to cast TextToSpeech on Google Home or Chromecast devices. You can get the ikea symfonisk speakers for $99 from ikea or looks on ebay to get them cheaper like i did. How do we use Google Home Speakers to announce when someone opens the Front Door ? It seems like Smartthings only allows EXPENSIVE Bose and Sonos speakers to do that. First, you will have to sign in with an existing account or create a new account.
How To Add Sonoff S31 Lite Zigbee Smart...
Grab your phone and open the new Samsung SmartThings app. OK Google, dim/brighten the lights in the living room. Choose a device that you’d like to add to a room. Press “Got It” when prompted to confirm the setup.
This allows you to “broadcast” any text you to any of your Google Home speakers! There are two apps available for download that are compatible with the hub. Available in your smartphone’s store, we have SmartThings Classic and SmartThing apps. One significant thing to look out for is that the SmartThings Classic does not allow you to assign multiple hubs to one location. With the smartThings hub, you can automate connected devices to turn on and off as people come in and go out using the door and more. They can also be automated to execute certain routines for specific commands such as Good morning, Goodnight, Goodbye, and more.

On the SmartThings Home Screen, you’ll see a bunch of new devices + the Cast-Web api. You’ll notice they all have the same name which makes it hard to identify which device is which. You should now see the cast-web service manager published. Next, add your IP address to the settings of Cast Web API and save.
It takes great people, like yourself, to develop this and create guides on "how to's" to create this. I hope to set something like this up in my home one day using a raspberry pi setup like your article described. You would need a SmartThings hub for this to work.
Missing Device
Open the Google Home app and ensure the Google account listed is the one you used to set up your Google Home. Have you added Google Home to your SmartThings hub? How’s the entire setup working, are there any issues? Share your experience with these innovative systems in the comments section below. You may assign multiple devices to a room, or even add multiple rooms to the app.
After downloading, double-click the .exe to install it like you would any other program. Connected devices will be listed down the page. You will need to assign your SmartThings devices to rooms in order to control them as a group with Google Assistant.
If it shows up orange or red, then you’ll probably need to change the default ports Apache and/or MySQL are listening on. In my case, I had to change both the MySQL and Apache ports, which took less than 30 seconds total. I created an Alexa virtual switch which shows in Alexa.
If a new location was added, tap “Yes, I have a hub to connect” and enter the Welcome code that’s six-character long. You can easily add many devices on your Samsung smartThings app in order to customize your home. ZigBee, Z-Wave, and IP-connected devices all work well with it.
